Skin tags and warts
Quick, precise cryotherapy for skin tags and warts, after a careful assessment.
Cryotherapy freezes a skin tag or wart with a fine, precise application, so the surrounding skin is left alone. The area then forms a small scab and heals over the following days to weeks.
Every lesion is assessed before treatment. Anything that looks unusual is not treated, and you'll be advised to see your GP or a dermatologist.
Honest advice, and knowing when to say, “You don't need that.”

Rebeca explains options, cost and timings.
Only what you need, nothing more.
Aftercare to follow and a review if needed.
Is it right for you?
- Every lesion is assessed first. Anything unusual is not treated and you'll be referred.
- Not offered on moles.
- A blister or scab is normal and part of healing.
- Less common: lighter or darker skin at the site, which may be long-lasting.
- Rarely: scarring or the lesion returning.
Results vary from person to person. Everything is explained before you consent, and you can take time to decide.
